Margaret Webster

Escape to Shanti, Hypnotherapy in Copmanthorpe, York

Do you struggle with stress, anxiety or panic attacks? Are you struggling to lose weight or get active? Do you want to feel relaxed, calm and listened to, to be treated as an individual? My name is Margaret, I am passionate about well-being and empowering you as an individual to achieve your goals.

Using a combination of Hypnotherapy, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Coaching I can work with you to help you to use the power, strength and resources you already possess to gain control over e.g. anxiety, unwanted habits, fears, phobias, weight loss, and insomnia.

Stress, anxiety and panic attacks

Stress, anxiety, overwhelm and panic attacks can have a profound impact on your life, triggering many unpleasant symptoms which can hold you back from enjoying your life to the full. It doesn’t have to be like this. Hypnotherapy can help.

I use a combination of coaching, NLP and hypnotherapy to work with you to address your experience of stress, anxiety and/or panic attacks according to your individual symptoms, triggers, preferred coping strategies and goals.

Weight loss / weight control

Whether you have struggled with your weight for years and tried every diet available, or gained weight more recently, would you like to be able to control your weight naturally, without constant cravings, restrictive diets or feeling that you are depriving yourself?  If you would like help and support to lose weight for good, I can help.  Get in touch today to take the first step towards regaining control of your weight.

Sleep / Insomnia

Sleep is essential to every aspect of life. Insufficient sleep can cause or exacerbate symptoms of anxiety and stress; can cause weight gain and make it hard to lose weight when we try to do so; can affect our social lives due to fatigue and our work as we struggle to concentrate. If you struggle with insomnia, whether you find it hard to get to sleep; experience poor quality sleep; or wake in the night and find it hard to get back to sleep, I can help.

Active lifestyle (exercise)

Do you want to be more active? Maybe you have a specific goal or simply want to be able to cycle with your family at the weekend. My passion for well-being, physical and mental health, a love of the outdoors and previous client experience leads me to want to empower you to enjoy an active lifestyle, whatever that might mean to you.

Whether you want to walk, run, swim, go to the gym, take up tennis, play in the park with your children, cycle to the see your friends or with your family, to dance yourself fit in your kitchen, try yoga, or to climb your way to the top of a wall or a rockface, it doesn't matter what your current activity level is or how simple your goals.  I can help you to define your true goals and why they are important to you, and support you to make lasting change to your mindset, lifestyle and habits to achieve the active lifestyle you want.

Phobias

Hypnotherapy is also a very powerful tool in helping to say goodbye to phobias for good. Are you avoiding going for your Covid-19 vaccine because of a needle phobia? Maybe you avoid going for walks because of your fear of dogs, or avoid visiting friends who have cats out of fear? Don't let a phobia hold you back in life. I can help.

Hypnotherapy and Holistic therapies

I am a fully qualified, registered (with the GHR and FHT) and insured hypnotherapist and holistic therapist. This means that I have a fabulous combination of skills which I can use separately or combined in a tailor-made package to support you on your well-being journey. Anyone seeking hypnotherapy is likely to be making changes to their life in one way or another. Holistic therapies, which offer many benefits including relaxation and improved sleep quality,  can be very effective in helping support you through those changes.

Where I work

I can see you either face-to-face in Copmanthorpe or, if you prefer, online in the comfort of your own home via Zoom. 

I offer prices for a single session (£68), or slightly reduced prices for a pre-paid block of 3, 4 or 6 sessions, or packages, for example for weight control. I am very happy to give you my prices, please ask for further information.
